Do you think of GREEN TECHNOLOGY as GREEN MAIL; fluorescent lights and ethanol driving up food prices?

julio_slsc asked:


This technology, ie ethanol, flourescent lighting is poor quality, less efficient and inflationary. Look at food prices as farmers commit more land to ethanol corn. Look at the cost of a flourcsent light compared to a simple incandescent-in the home-in practice with all the switching on and off, incandescent lights use less energy due to the fact that flourecscents must remain on for several hours before they save money. That is why office buildings and factories have long used flourescent lihgts, they leave them on for up to 16 hours a day with no shut offs save closing time. Now how often do you turn the light on and off with little kids? I speak from experience as I am a dad and business consultant. We must pay for groceries and electricity at home and at work.
Who do think benefits form expensive ethanol and flourecent lights?
Who do you think pays for this waste of money?

    It’s the high cost of fuel, the declining value of the dollar, demand of financial markets to make 40% profit and speculation, that makes things cost more…

    Maybe it’s the C5a Galaxie plane loads currency we misplaced in Iraq has something to do with it.

    never heard about fluorescent lights but yes to ethanol, I know fluorescent lights contain mercury a powerful nerve toxin that stunts mental growth of our children’s brain, but many politicians seem to overlook this fact. What good is the planet going to be when everyone is a idiot from mercury poisoning
